Heralded quarterback prospect Zach Wilson will attend next week's NFL draft in Cleveland, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The BYU product is expected to be taken second overall by the New York Jets. He will likely be the first player to head to the podium in Cleveland as Trevor Lawrence, the presumptive top pick, declined an invitation to attend.

Other top prospects set to join Wilson in the green room include Ja'Marr Chase, DeVonta Smith, Kyle Pitts, Trey Lance, and Mac Jones.

Wilson jumped into the No. 2 pick conversation after throwing for 33 touchdowns and three interceptions during his 2020 campaign. He finished his time at BYU with 7,652 career passing yards and 56 touchdown passes.
